Subject: Anymatrix MATLAB toolbox, version 1.0


We have just released version 1.0 of Anymatrix, a MATLAB toolbox that
provides an extensible collection of matrices, organized in groups,
with the ability to search the collection by matrix properties.

Notable features include:
- a large collection of Hadamard matrices
- real-life matrices from networks
- matrices built-in to MATLAB (including gallery) can be searched by
property

For the software and documentation see

Subject: MPLAPACK version 1.0.0 released


The MPLAPACK (formerly MPACK) is a multiple-precision version of
LAPACK (https://www.netlib.org/lapack/) MPLAPACK version 1.0.0 is
based on the LAPACK version 3.9.1 and translated from Fortran 90 to
C++ using FABLE, a Fortran to C++ source-to-source conversion tool
(https://github.com/cctbx/cctbx_project/tree/master/fable). MPLAPACK
version 1.0.0 provides the real and complex version of MPBLAS, and the
real version of MPLAPACK supports all LAPACK features: solvers for
systems of simultaneous linear equations, least-squares solutions of
linear systems of equations, eigenvalue problems, and singular value
problems, and related matrix factorizations except for rectangular
complete packed matrix form and mixed-precision routines. Besides,
MPLAPACK supports a part of the complex routines of LAPACK, such as
diagonalization of Hermite matrices, Cholesky factorization, and
matrix inversion. The MPLAPACK defines an API for numerical linear
algebra, similar to LAPACK. It is easy to port legacy C/C++ numerical
codes using MPLAPACK. MPLAPACK supports binary64, binary128, FP80
(extended double), MPFR, GMP, and QD libraries (double-double and
quad-double). Users can choose MPFR or GMP for arbitrary accurate
calculations, double-double or quad-double for fast 32 or 64 decimal
calculations. We can consider the binary64 version as the C++ version
of LAPACK. MPLAPACK is available at GitHub
(https://github.com/nakatamaho/mplapack) under the 2-clause BSD
license.

Subject: New release, preCICE v2.3


A new preCICE release, v2.3, is just out. The new version comes with
much improved memory footprint of mesh data structures, better
capabilities to couple many solvers fully implicitly, and many
usability improvements. More information:
https://precice.discourse.group/t/highlights-of-the-new-precice-release-v2-3/750

What is preCICE?
https://www.precice.org/

preCICE is a coupling library for partitioned multi-physics
simulations, including, but not restricted to fluid-structure
interaction and conjugate heat transfer simulations. The software
offers methods for transient equation coupling, communication, and
data mapping. preCICE is written in C++ and offers additional bindings
for C, Fortran, Matlab, and Python. Ready-to-use adapters for many
solvers, such as OpenFOAM, deal.II, FEniCS, SU2, or CalculiX, are
available. Due to the minimally-invasive approach of preCICE, adapters
for in-house codes can be implemented and validated in only a few
weeks. preCICE is an open-source software under the LGPL3 license.

Subject: Householder Symposium XXI, Jun 2022


The Householder Symposium XXI on Numerical Linear Algebra has been
rescheduled to be held at Hotel Sierra Silvana, Selva di Fasano (Br),
Italy, 12-17 June 2022.

The Symposium is very informal, with the intermingling of young and
established researchers a priority. Attendance is by invitation
only. Each attendee will be given the opportunity to present a talk or
a poster. Some talks will be plenary lectures, while others will be
shorter presentations arranged in parallel sessions. Participants are
expected to attend the entire meeting. Anyone accepted for HHXI in
2020 has a valid invitation for 2022. In February 2022, we will
re-open the application process to fill any vacancies that arise due
to cancellations as a result of the new situation. Applications will
be solicited from researchers in numerical linear algebra, matrix
theory, and related areas such as optimization, differential
equations, signal processing, control, and data science.
